Please do your best to nominate someone to marshal for you or marshal yourself for one of the nights.
Please be aware: the Ramsey Swimming Pool have kindly allowed us to use their facility so there are toilets but no changing facilities. There is a baggage van if you wish to leave a bag at your own risk.
The Café will be open specially so please support them.
